Passengers on the other hijacked planes also had made cell calls. On Flight 175, passenger Peter Hanson called his father, Lee Hanson, two times."It's getting bad, Dad," he said in his second call. "I think we are going down. I think they intend to go to Chicago or someplace and fly into a building. Don't worry, Dad. If it happens, it'll be very fast."
This is the first time I heard that a passenger on another flight was aware that it was going to be crashed into a target.
First I've heard of this, too. How did he know? Did the terrorists brag about their intentions? Why didn't Mr. Hanson and his fellow passengers fight back if they knew they were going to die? What's sad is with the recent reports of suspicious terrorist activity on planes, no one has stepped up and taken action against those suspicious characters. We have not learned a thing from Todd Beamer and the brave souls on Flight 93.
